Here is what I believe happened. The Dennis Ross staff made big mistakes when confronted with this activist. To drop charges would be to admit those mistakes, and open themselves up to lawsuits. The library asked for, and waited for the charges to be dropped. When that did not happen, the library went public with the story, knowing they would win in the court of public opinion. They are holding back on releasing the video of Steve Woolfolk being taken down, to provide more incentive to the Ross staff to drop the charges.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10849017.post-1826103976958163312016-10-03T04:33:15.654-05:002016-10-03T04:33:15.654-05:00Apparently 10:29, you did not watch the video and ...Apparently 10:29, you did not watch the video and did not understand that the activist is himself, Jewish.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10849017.post-30675067647111719472016-10-02T22:29:52.533-05:002016-10-02T22:29:52.533-05:00Wow!

I was there and no fan of either the activist or the group sponsoring or co-sponsoring or whatever. <br /><br />Freedom of speech by the activist was given. Problem was he does not have the "freedom" to dominate the conversation preventing others from asking their questions and that IS what happened. That ding dong was not only allowed to speak, but allowed to respond until this all became a "you are evil" rant. His mic was cut off by the library after he refused to leave and the security then had to forcibly remove the activist. As for the library guy, you are not in charge and certainly not in charge of the police that were there. What these two folks want is nothing more that hate, hate the cops and hate those Jews. <br /><br />This is all nothing more than an anarchist movement, or at least, that is what this all leads to if society lets them have their way. Of course, I dare not disagree with a lib or I will be dehumanized and belittled to the extreme as a hater should I disagree with the left.....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10849017.post-73904165432793769502016-10-02T13:40:09.960-05:002016-10-02T13:40:09.960-05:00Wow, this Tony guy is a real piece of shit.

A foundational bedrock for the library's guiding principles is the free exchange of ideas in pursuit of knowledge. <br /><br />KANSAS CITY PUBLIC LIBRARY WORKER DEFENDING ISRAEL HATER AMID OUTBURST ISN'T DEFENSE OF FREE SPEECH<br />Sorry, but wrong again. Please watch the video again. What outburst? Does an individual have a right to peacefully ask questions at an open public library event, during the question/answer session? If the speaker, event organizers, or library staff took offense, did they ask him to sit down or leave? No, they did not. Did the aggressive security/off-duty police identify themselves as such when manhandling the two men? No, they did not. <br /><br />"..both the Kansas City Public Library AND the Mid-Continent Library are outdated institutions.." <br />If you're referring to their physical plant, then I won't argue the point.<br /><br />"The reaction by members of an outside security detail, who immediately accosted the questioner, was improper and an infringement on free speech, Library Director Crosby Kemper maintains. And he says the ensuing arrests were unwarranted.<br />“The Library strives to be a place where people of all points of view can feel safe, welcome, and free to express themselves in an appropriate way,” Kemper says." <br />Mr. Kemper is simply defending the public at-large, commonsense, and is absolutely correct on this point.<br /><br />Let's contrast this library episode in which two peaceful individuals were roughed up and arrested by police AT THE KC LIBRARY<br />.....to the recent episode involving.... KCMO Councilwoman Alissia Canady, who after her vehicle was prepared for towing due to long expired license plates, directly refused a police officers orders, got into an argument with responding officers, and was only released with her vehicle because KCPD decided to "de-escalate the situation" and not drag her out of the vehicle. She was issued a ticket after all this! <br /><br />So, let's talk about the HYPOCRISY of the KCPD leadership in which a belligerent Councilwoman can argue with and refuse officer's orders after violating the law.......versus......two non-violent non-argumentative guys at the library who get roughed up and arrested!!! Forte should resign if he can't do better than this.
